Wow, lots of hostility against Jordan Scott here! I've never read The Nocturn but I have read all the books in the Twilight series and liked them (until the movie which stared the giant fan-base of people who never read it and then started calling it the new Harry Potter, that's where I drew the line). The New York Post had an excerpt from both books and it seemed Meyer had just dumbed-down Scott's book (again, never read it). So, let's all have some chamomile and relax, we'll read The Nocturn and meet back here in a month, okay?

DANNNGGG, YOU ALL GOTTA CALM DOWN, TAKE CHILL PILL. we all know that whoever this scott person is, does not know what she is talking about. Stephanie started writing how long ago and Scott started when and her little website doesn't give shit information. i agree with a lot of you she is just mad cause Stephanie is a damn good writer and got all the fame. oh and twilight does not have horses and in twilight the vampires don't go off and find out about their powers. they already know so i would really like to see how this Scott writer is comparing her books, oh and most damn books have scene of sex, main characters loved one dieing. we all know the books will go on but this Scott person should take up another career.

NEED by Carrie Jones was published just this year and copyrighted in March of 2009.
How could she have copied it? Did Carrie Jones also post chapters of her book online for Steph to steal from?
Give me a break!

She's not Ridley Scott's daugher. Her IMDb is the second Jordan Scott(II), not the first one. Her book is now available in paperback, only getting truly published now that she's sure to sell her books. Previously, she was self published in 2006. She is using this to sell books. Her attorney is quoted in early August as saying "Twilight fans will have to read Ms. Scott's book to decide for themselves." She doesn't do the MTV interview until a day or so after her book is available again. She has succeeded in getting what she likely wanted all along. I doubt much more effort is put forth in persuing this issue, lest she want to be sued herself. So sad that greed can make people lie, steal and cheat. She's a hoax and she knows it. Oh...and her twitter page...began on August 2nd..and she tweets about writing...like that is what she always does. She says it took her 3 years to finish the Nocturne (2003 - 2006). If she's such a serious writer...where is the rest of this trilogy?

To me, it really does sound like Scott just wants to cash in on the whole Twilight franchise. Breaking Dawn has been out for over a year now so why does she file suits now? Especially since the first of the saga was already turned into a movie and the second and third are in the works?
And the whole thing about the wedding, sex after the marriage, a c section, and blood being coughed out not usually found in a vampire genre, what exactly do you find in a vampire genre? So vampires and werewolves can't fall in love and conceive a child like what happened in Underworld: Rise of the Lycans? They can't have sherriffs and monarchs and invent fake blood like in True Blood? Its fiction, meaning that you can write it the way you want it to be like.
It just all seems a bit fishy to me. That's all I'm going to say

I haven't read the other book so I can't say forsure,but I do belive that jordan scotts law suit is a bunch of bulls*@t. Almost all vampire books and movies have the same basic themes,And I will not read the other book just to confirm that her law suit is bull,that will only make jordan scott money so she still wins even when her law suites dismissed. And secondly I do belive that book publishers pay people very well to look into these exact claim's before they publish the author!

Twilight is for pre-pubescent junior high girls... Basically, the female nerd equivalent. Like, OMG, he's ummm, a vampire, and like, so cute! Bwahaha, this is just one sad chapter in your life that you will forget or laugh about when you're spitting babies out and hoping your husband stops drinking long enough to get a job.

There is no need for anyone to be unbiased. I am a Meyer fan period. But look at the facts. Anyone who is really a Twilight Fan knows all about Forever Dawn which is... the first sequel completed in 2004. Not published for the public but Steph did finish it and in there is the complete idea for the series. The difference between that and Breaking dawn, Edward left and Bella and Jacob thing. Other than that she was finished 2 years before little miss my book didn't make so I am going to take it out on someone elses book even was published in 2006. Also if she is going to cry about it shouldnt she go after every half breed vampire birth then. Blade, Blood Ryne. etc... she is dumb and ill researched.

Are you Twitards serious!? There are so many similarity's with the text that it would be easy to sue! It's terrible you faggots freak out like this when you're wrong instead of just admitting it.

Most of u i hope have read my post on the top of page two. And i Change my view. She didnt copy off of the nocturne BUT she did copy off of nook NEED BY CARRIE JONES.
Synopsis
Zara White suspects there's a freaky guy semi-stalking her. She's also obsessed with phobias. And it's true, she hasn't exactly been herself since her stepfather died. But exiling her to shivery Maine to live with her grandmother? That seems a bit extreme. The move is supposed to help her stay sane...but Zara's pretty sure her mom just can't deal with her right now.
She couldn't be more wrong. Turns out the semi-stalker is not a figment of Zara's overactive imagination. In fact, he's still following her, leaving behind an eerie trail of gold dust. There's something not right - no human - in this sleepy Maine town, and all signs point to Zara.
In this creepy, compelling breakout novel, Carrie Jones delivers romance, suspense, and a creature you never thought you"d have to fear.

ok. seriously. ive never read jordans book, but cmon. the baby bella is carrying isnt evil. its a vampire. of course its gona be hurting her... she's still human while carrying it!!! n like everybody pointed out.. there's many books that have a post wedding sex scene. and in breaking dawn its difficult bcuz edward bruises bella... but then controls himself better. is that in the nocturne?? i dont think so. a post wedding sex scene is hardly SIMILAR SCENES. and bella dying. well duh! the baby ripped out of her!!! how is she NOT gona die? i mean cmon these things were obviously gona happen in breaking dawn. how else would the story end with bella edward n reneesme? how would she hav been conceived? obviously by edward n bella gettin married... havin sex... n den da half vamp bein born nearly killing her mother. seriously. cmon ppl. im not gona call jordan n e names or say she's doin it for da publicity... all im sayin is that stephenie is innocent.
looks like somebody' s jealous...
jordan scott is just publishing alla these shit because her novel is not well-known while stephenie meyer' s is!
she is exposing as "stolen" scenes a MARRIAGE scene, a love scene on a beach and a human' s transformation to a vampire...
all these scenes are very common and she says that they are UNUSUALLY similar!
FOR GOD' S SAKE! these are happening in most movies!
so... jordan all your "evidence" or whatever you call 'em are BULLSHIT!!!
Stephanie
August 10th, 2009 12:27 PM
Okay all i am saying is that this book, though it is real, nobody has really even heard of it. And those similarities, those have to be in hundreds of books. post wedding sex, come on, its a honeymoon!! Of course there will be post wedding sex!! And pregnant with an evil thing, the baby inside of Bella isn't "evil" they just call it that sometimes because its hurting her! It's not evil! And focus on the main characters wife dying, um that would be in about a million books!! gosh, get a clue woman.
Jordan Scott FTW!

I hope Scott wins. I can't stand Meyer and Twilight.

Both contain a post-wedding sex scene; (umm in what post wedding scene is there not sex???)
Both depict a scene about a woman who's sick because she's carrying a child with "evil powers;" found also in a s***load of other books/movies
Both focus on the death of the main character's wife. a lot of people die get over it but this also happens in a lot of books/movies F.E. ps i love you (but with a husband dying)
i hate retards like this ahha

August 7th, 2009 12:41 PM
It's just some freaking retard trying to steal some money outta of Stephenie. This is pissing me the hell off. It seriously is. I just hate it when people are incredibly stupid and try claiming things like this. No one even knows who she is or that she or her stupid ass book even exist! To claim that someone like Stephenie Meyer would read her crap is extremely insulting.

Problems for Stephenie Meyer! I understand the fans don’t want to accept this, however the facts are the facts.
If this were not true, Jordan Scott and her claim would have been laughed out of court! But it’s not, in fact, it’s growing. I saw a report on TV last night.
If this were not true, why are the fans so upset? Jordan Scott would have been exposed and Stephenie would be smiling :)
If this were not true, Stephenie would have issued a public denial! Where is she? Why is she hiding?.
If this were not true, why would Jordan Scott have put passages out to the world for comparison? You can agree or not, but she obviously is not hiding.
If this were not true, Jordan Scott’s lawyer would not even take the case! By the way, did anybody google her lawyer? He is the guy that took down Napster.
All Breaking Dawn fans better buy copies of the book while you still can. Good luck Steph, you’re gonna need it!

ok. first of all, this chick apparently wrote her "book" when she was 15. here's an excerpt as to what amazing literary prowess she possesses:
"They threw me against the wall. And before I was able to breathe in once more I heard�and felt�the flesh-ripping, bone-crushing sound of another blade being forced into the middle of my chest, jostling me back just as I staggered forward. The dagger lodged there, and when they let go of me and I sank to the ground it fell out, beside me. I lay there in the mud, unable to breathe or see or hear for a moment. What little blood wasn�t pouring out of my wounds seeped into my lungs, which made my breathing harder, heavier, more labored. Blackness was coming, I could feel it." -- The Nocturne
clearly, she was 15. and it is indeed almost impossible to find. it is not on amazon or any other book site that i can find, her own website claims that the book is "sold out", and the fact that her reps refuse to send a copy to Meyer's lawyers just

I just finished reading Jordan Scott's book on-line at Google books, it is under Texas Aggies, don't ask me. I've also read Breaking Dawn about 6 times. I see almost no similarities between the books. It is also my understanding that Breaking Dawn or technically Forever Dawn was first written and copyright by Stephanie Meyers in 2003. That would be the same year that Jordan Scott started her book according to her own words, "it took 3 years to research and write the book" it was published in 2006. 2006-3=2003. Does that seem strange to anyone?
So after reading Jordan's book, I can tell you I would never waste my money to buy it. The book would need serious re-write to be good. Further to accuse Stephanie Meyer of plagiarism would be funny if it wasn't so sad a ploy on Jordan's part. She may get some publicity out of this, but not the kind she wants. It won't encourage anyone to go buy her book either.
